Hi guys
I have in my poession a 3 door 3.5 v8 discovery on a Greg plate.
Now im in a predicament because to be honest it has seen much better days, both the sills are rotten through and the rear cross member needs done although (last time i checked) the boot floor was surprisingly solid!
It isnt 100% standard, it is running on SU's as the strombergs that came with it were shot, although i still have them and the interior is pretty tatty, also there is no plastic on the front bumpers but i do still have what came off it.
It does start and actually runs not too badly, will still spin all 4 if you put your foot down.
My predicament is, that i have an offer from a mate who wants to buy it and use it as a donor for a 90 conversion but i have read quite recently that the G reg discos are becoming increasingly rare and getting to the stage that people are looking for them to restore. I dont think it is past the point of no return but it would certainly be a big job to get it back to nice condition. To be honest i would feel a bit guilty seeing it get ripped to shreds.
It still has several origional wee things like the zip pocket behind the passenger seats and even still has the snap on roof rails!
So can anyone offer me any advice on what to do with it?
It currently sitting ion parents drive way rotting away.
Cheers
Ally
